The word “Freon” is often used to refer to all types of refrigerant. But actual Freon is also known as R-22.

This is similar to the way people say, “I need a Kleenex” when really they are asking for a tissue. If you have a newer AC system, it is highly likely that you no longer use Freon in your system. 

If  you know what type of refrigerant you need, you can see the pricing here. 

The scientific name/formula for Freon is chlorodifluoromethane or difluoromonochloromethane. 

While Freon is colorless, it is not harmless. It is unsafe to breath and also destroys the ozone layer, although not as badly as other refrigerants. However, it is becoming illegal in the United States in 2020 for companies to use or sell Freon.
